Per the comments on the email list, we should discuss expanding the Diversity.md file to address inclusion as well.

I think we could expand on it further and move contributor growth to be a part of this as well (and remove it from growth-maturity-decline). This would allow the growth-maturity-decline metrics to focus on the software side, while the diversity section focuses more on the human side of development. We could title it "Diversity, Inclusion, and Contributor Growth."

I can certainly see this.

Move: Community Growth | Number of new developers over time
From: Growth-Maturity-Decline
To: Diversity & Inclusion

Rename: Diversity & Inclusion
To: Diversity, Inclusion, and Contributor Growth

Regarding 2, what do you think about Diversity & Participation? Does that encompass what you are getting at -- without losing the message?

I think that works pretty well, the only potential issue I can think of is if we want to designate a separation between user and contributor participation. Issue #21 mentions potentially creating a new metric related to user experience, so maybe we can designate this as Contributor Diversity, Inclusion, and Participation to leave room for user-related metrics under a different domain.

In this case, what is the distinction between contributor and user? Is the user, the user of the OSS?

I do very much like Contributor Diversity, Inclusion, and Participation

Precisely, I'm not sure how much there would be to track related to this, but it might be worthwhile to keep that separate from contributor metrics.

Got it.

@germonprez Just to chime in on the discussion here, I would think that a contributor would be defined as a person who adds value (bug fixes, features, release engineering efforts) to the CHAOSS community projects, and a user is more-so a consumer/implementor of those projects.

Fair enough, thanks @jasontclark
